Have yhey announced anything on the dock part oyher than its a dock? Will it have more hardware in the dock? And if it does, why bother with having the portable unit if it is only a fraction aside from a vc machine? And the online stuff, will it be good unlike the wiiu? And region locking. And launch lineup. There are too many questions to say it is good yet. It is only "interesting". But then again, a car crash is also "interesting" but that does not make it good.

From the streams I saw, it's garbage, and not that funny. There are parts, like the constantly disappearing/reappearing motorcycle and the dialogue system basically just being a choice to be a total cunt or not, but it's mostly just dull and confusing. The story isn't funny bad, mostly because no one has any idea what the fuck it's about, and not in a Neil Breen way, in a dull, buzzwordy way. Wu grabbed a handful of scifi concepts and just sort of threw them out of the mouths of some ugly mannequins.

Right now all the people who have been on point with leaks so far have said the thing is going to be region free but nothing actually confirmed. As for the dock no idea but people are saying the actual tablet can only output at 720p if that is true the dock better do something. A console that can only output at 720p now when 4K TVs are becoming the norm and their last console could do 1080 is pretty shit. However Nintendo put out a brand new console in 2006 that could only output 480p.

Hey, do you remember a couple of years ago, when Wu launched that solidarity fund to support the "victims of gamergate", and then funded Revolution 60 (with some money… collected somewhere), and then never talked about that fund ever again? The MarySue even wrote an article about it. Those were the days.

I don't care if you like nintendo, sony, or microsoft, it's not important one bit, all the shitposting isn't amusing and it's not accomplishing anything, yet people still insist it fucking matters and derail threads based on that shit.

don't have nintendo products for decades now, but considering the hardware playing field it wasn't the worst decision to make a hybird, though the specs will be interesting when they are released– no need for console war faggotry, but new tech is always interesting

The wii had problems resolution aside, such as some games looking like n64 games (red steel) and the controls being bad for most in long play sessions (not me) or just akward for the game (other m comes to mind). Some have said that they noticed lag on the tablet but none when docked, and a modular dock like the gamecube would be pretty cool. The micro controllers/no dpad is the only gross thing I do not like so far, but I can see 3rd parties making ones with a real dpad if there is a demand (I hope hori hears the demand of dedicated dpad for the screens side controls). And price will be an issue too, granted nintendo tries not to go too nuts with price, but that can change easily.

It just made sense for Nintendo to just make a handheld and forego the entire console thing. Nintendo has only been floundering there since 1996 when the N64 came out. Even the Wii which sold exceptionally well had really poor game sells outside of a few select Nintendo titles that sold 10s of millions. However their handhelds have always done very very well. Even the 3DS which was off to a really rocky start has turned it around. Now that doesn't mean the thing is guaranteed to be awesome and sell gangbusters. Nintendo is under new leadership now and they're game output lately has not been very good even for people who normally like Nintendo games.

I'm not sure Wu actually collected any money, I think >she asked lawyers for help an intended to make a CON-like organization. Wu had money from the kickstarter

In my opinion, if they can give me a cheap tablet with a decent enough screen, a control scheme that isn't "get your hands in the way and smear said screen," and some decent games, that's fine with me.

Looks like they've been trying to push that angle when the writer for Green Arrow said he was "a kind of social justice warrior." But the thing is, superheroes actually go out and do shit, not whine about shit on Twitter or stay inside their college campus while pretending they're "supporting a cause."

To be honest, modern 'heroes' are villains from time to time. Look at this recent story from WW.

It seems like she had gone full Poison Ivy/Dolittle. She faces a man that cannot harm her in any way, almost killing him at first, not offering any type of help after the mess she causes, and shaming him for even trying to defend himself.

Probably guilt from knowing that he'll never live up to his image of cleaning up one of the most corrupt cities in DC's Earth. So naturally, in true SJW fashion, he wants to tear it all down purely because a fictional character is simply better than him.

I don't live in there, but looking at my country, Brazil, and how we manage to pretty much fuck the corrupt president while she was in power, I will tell you this: You need a strong example.

Here, we had a judge that managed to put high politicians and some of the richest men in jail. That happen because we managed to make sure millions of people went to protests in 2013 for some smaller motivations, but the snowball effect took place and it hit the Brazilian capitol.

What I want to say is, every people that want to avoid Hillary should have gone to the streets. It could lead to the fall of some of her highest rank officers first, and finally, the snake itself. But people must be out there, there is no other effective way.

If you just go to the streets and show you are mad as hell and you will not take it anymore, changes will happen. Some good people in the system only need to see that the people would be with them if necessary.

He's really obsessed about Batman specifically: he's been rambling about him for the past 7 years. He doesn't talk much about Superman… hell, you'd think he'd post about Wonder Woman every now and then, yet, in the past 6 years, he only made THREE tweets about her.

The one naive idiot keeps on insisting that it can work. All 3 (va, animator, programmer) are surplused and unlike writers who also double as directors in many cases have no chance. And the regular suspects will all scab so they can inflate their influence.

Yeah, and like that one Anon pointed out, does he honestly expect Wheaton, Burch, or Strong to actually go on strike? Those fuckers are just trying to eliminate the competition with this shit, because they know they wouldn't get voicework if the devs could find someone better.

oh hey,its probably mine saying they will scab. they are delusional, especially with them going against disney. Look at what they did to epic mickeys studio. could we look at old threads through wayback? I want to find a thread where the dev of epic mickey came in and talked about his dime working on it with disney. I sould have archived, but it was november 2014, and I did not develop the habit yet.

What is funny is that a lot of high profile voice actors are also calling this attempt out as a way to screw over everyone else there in preference to give VOs special treatment. Their was that one counter group a while back who called them out as trying to fuck over other employees or scab off of other VOs.

The people that make these damn games don't get residuals, why should some useless VA get them?

Here's the thing, if companies cave to their demands it opens the door for the programmers to demand the same and companies are not going to go for that.

All SAG did is ensure that these large companies seek out contracts with smaller VA's, which wouldn't bother me at all, I'm tired of the same voices over and over in every goddamn game, fuck these spoiled brats.

I am sorry to say this, but the writers for hellboy and the goon turned full kool aid a while back. The guy who does the goon was especially hit hard and is ashamed of that one mini comic he made a while back making fun of liberals and hipsters reading to much into art.

It's depressing because I've never imagined myself voting for corporations over the little guy but here the "little guy" are a bunch of self entitled brats that really think their shit doesn't stink and the whole world must cater to them.

Superman is an alien and Wonder Women is a vagina, so Batman is the richest, whitest, straightest easy target available I suppose. When you are a wannabe propagandist, I guess you look at everything like its propaganda. Must be tough being a full-time activist for zeros and ones and drawn things. Ideologues and religious zealots are one and the same, never seeking professional help to rid their ego of narcissist fantasies.

If they really wanted to make a Trump joke, they should have done something about him being a real estate mogul, or his New Yorker way of speaking. But no, they'll use Le Current Year Limey's half-assed attempt at making a meme, because FUCK EFFORT!

Plenty of unions are awful (and look at police unions for the worst in every sense) but at least some can actually benefit workers. The corporate suits have every incentive to fuck over their workers, and nothing to stop them bribing- sorry, 'lobbying' the government to remove every single check and balance in the way of that.

It all went to hell when the USSR fell apart; back then you had to at least pretend you weren't a feudal sweatshop right out of Soviet propaganda, nowadays not even the Chinese bother with the pretence of giving 99% of the population a decent life without clawing over each other for it.

This isn't even the worst job I've had. I used to work in a stamping plant.

>$10/hour

>whole place is filthy and a health hazard

>training is basically non-existent, they put you on a job right away

>so hot that I threw up my lunch on my first day

>"part-time" work that cuts off right at 39 hours that week because they have to give you benefits if you work 40, or something

>inadequate equipment

>unless they REALLY like you they'll just fire you on your 89th day and hire someone new because it's less hassle

That's how most jobs out here are. We lost most of our big employers during the recession, so there's a huge number of overqualified workers taking the few good jobs. The rest of the jobs can afford to be shitty because there are so many people looking for work. The one good employer for someone like me opened up applications for one day and got 8000+ of them, for 300 positions. Even the conditions there aren't great, but you have a degree of job security and the pay is better than minimum wage so it's a dream job.

Yep, Canadian. If you want a good job, you either get the hell out of my area or you pray to god Chrysler will hire you. The union's incompetent, the factory's filthy, the work is (apparently) nightmarish at first, but they won't fire you without a reason, if you stick around long enough you'll eventually make $35 an hour and you'll reliably be working 6 days a week, at 1.5x pay on Saturdays. Plus you get paid vacation time.

I only go there when google takes me there when I search things about games I'm playing like what the fuck is this stat

Ever had those games with like all normal stats like str/agi/mana/health/int all that shit and then its got like a random stat that makes no fucking sense what it does because the game has no description

Jon St Jon is still sperging out over how anyone who does not like the new duke nukem is a gamer pussy. The game is still doing like shit and he is making it even worse without realizing it. Why did the retards at gearbox think making mods not able to run properly with their new edition of duke is beyond me, but a former dev claimed they did it for dlc so the only maps that could be supported were theirs.

They talk big but I don't think they'll get rid of it. The way I hear it they threaten to move it to Mexico pretty regularly, but every time they've moved something there, they've had a lot of problems. Moving the minivan manufacturing there would be inviting lawsuits because of shit build quality

I'm thinking more and more about properly ripping all my Duke Nukem CDs and setting a torrent up. No port or patches included, just the genuine original game as it was released in '96 since it's too much to ask nowadays.

The even more damning part is that Randy tried to actually get the workshop for the atomic edition taken down but could not due to a legal loophole which allowed the atomic edition devs to keep it up despite the game being removed from steam.

This. The game is still selling like shit and has barely any players at its peak or even currently since no one trusts gearbox with duke, especially after the former devs came out to point out all the bullshit and how gearbox is ruining the game. People also do not want a duke game with no mod or map support.

He probably doesn't even know about it, I'll tag him and see what he says. Also, I think they only allowed Pak's statement so they can have a reference that's different from the usual suspects while at the same time giving the reader the impression the leaks aren't really that important. This way they can say they have people from different sides agreeing and then be done with it.

Didn't he say that only about his own "file" in CON ? I don't think he was dismissing the entire thing, more like him being a target of such a thing being harmless because they basically just found an old video of him shilling some ink company or some shit.

So fucking what. You either train your vocal muscles to be able to handle it or you don't and if you're unable to deliver a particular voice any more, you make a new one. If you can't handle that then you prepare a fallback profession to turn to in the future.

I'm all for crushing SJWs skulls on the sidewalk. This is not a mere issue about politics or blue team vs red team; these people are vermin that thrive on victimhood and ruining the lives of others as long it brings them money or personal benefits

Anime is enough to know that voice acting is a talent and these hacks have none if they're complaining about voice strain.

The only voice actor I know of who has ever said "I can't do that voice anymore" among the Japanese is Judau's and that's because he's simply too old to voice a kid. The guy is STILL doing voice acting in shows like One Piece and has even done work in toku shows like Akibaranger. There are others I'm sure but this stresses the need to focus on a new voice if you are unable to do a previous one for any reason.

So they want a script - but not too long, because reading is hard, consisting of quirky one-liners and bashing the patriarchy.

All at the same time, read it only once, and due to their rare talent, they nail it on the first try and can go home after one day, live nicely on the royalties becaus the voice-work of the game is praised so it sell billions.

Then a call from the president, invitation to the white house, oscar and guest-apperances on shows so they can launch whatever money laundering scheme is popular (perfume, jewellery-design, clothing, cookingware whatever) and live happily ever after.

Stop being so entitled to have a functioning VA when you can't even give them a decent living :^^)

It's like… If they wanted to be more involved, Japan's already got the precedent set, they can offer to be the face of the character in public appearances, they get more steady work and more money to do it. But no, instead, their demands are "hire primarily from our union or go fuck yourself," and "give us more money."

Gamification as a field of study is being coopted. Instead of learning the most efficient ways to perform tasks to cut down on unnecessary work and effort ("gaming the system") it's now "appreciating" the work process and not to question or seek improvements, no matter how repetitive or redundant. To put it in gaming terms, from figuring out shortcuts and "cheats" gamification has become a soliloquy on the joys of grinding.

These same people thought we were stupid enough to stop calling them out on their bullshit because "WE, YOUR NERD HEROES, CONDEMN YOU," so I wouldn't be surprised if they think the suits are just a bunch of idiots. NEWS FLASH, aside from a few examples in TV, they largely aren't.

Sonds like all of "the pursuit of knowledge" now of days. We never really moved away from killing those who seek info that changes our ways of thinking, just now we make those who seek suffer longer before death.

Yesterday, HoneyBadgerRadio posted "The secret inspiration for The Red Pill Part - 2". Gamergate is mentionned at 17:23 by Cassie Jaye's boyfriend, Evan Davies; For those who don't know, Cassie Jaye is a reporter and used to be a feminist, she's responsible for the recent documentary "The Red Pill", which was initially meant to cover MRA's and check whether or not the narrative run by mainstream media was true. During the shooting and editing of the documentary, her views changed and she now pretty much resigned from the feminist church. If you don't feel like watching the segment, here's a transcript:

>What do you make of any other parts of the "manosphere?"

>I think another fascinating aspect of the "manosphere" is the Gamergate community. If you can call that an aspect to the manosphere. I know they are very separate, but it does have to do with the silencing that's happening. For anybody that wants to… challenge the mantra, the dialectic that's currently in popular culture. And they really got silenced. And that's one of the biggest issues that I think this mov– well, these people; not even necessarily this movement: some of these people just wanna talk and they're not even allied with the movement. But just being silenced and not being allowed to speak, that's a fundamental right as an American. That's a constitutional right, Freedom of Speech. And it's been– I mean that's… it's amazing to me. That something can be unconstitutionally just shut up. And that it's okay for so many people. And that's right and they shouldn't be allowed to talk about these things. And it's happening on Twitter, it's happening on Facebook, and it's just… This is not what those things are supposed to be about. They're supposed to be about Freedom of Speech, and being able to share ideas, and challenge ideas, and make people hungry if you want to. Because that's– the Internet is supposed to be a free space.

I watched "Species" (a 1995 action/sci-fi flick) not too long ago. There's a scene where Sil (a human/alien hybrid whom escapes a secret laboratory and tries to fit in the crowd of Los Angeles) is watching television, trying to gather information on how to behave "normally" in society. Of course she comes across stupid ads, and of course she decides to mimic the whole thing… the funny thing is, there are many movies where you have that scene where the clueless (most often alien) character is mimicking stereotypical/dumb/cliché/over-the-top TV shows and commercials… and it's always cringe inducing… yet SJWs are acting like those aliens. They watch entertainment and inappropriate content, thinking this is somewhat representative of society, and go apeshit about how this is detrimental to the Common Good(tm)… when no one is actually imitating these things.

Knowing the way this industry is going, expect kickstarter reward tiers where one can voice a character or contests to win a chance at voicing a character and depending on the quality of your voice. I can't even think of games that VA made better or memorable since Vice City or Deckard Cain from Diablo

I wonder if she was miss angerist from the early days. I don't think we ever found out who she was, but she was a feminist who 'couldn't express her change in perspective in her work due to doing feminist focused stuff'

Oh, and if they do get more, they will be competing with singers, who all get that shit already and who have even better name recognition. Good luck competing with someone who can work more hours than you and who can even sing.

In that interview, she explains a bit that she used to be in a mindset such that she would want to "convert" people. Her boyfriend also compares feminism to a religion. Now they both look like an happy couple. Go check the first and second part (in the first part, she explains for quite some time how her work affected her relationship).

The only ones I can think of are Japanese games. Mostly because I can't speak Japanese so I can't tell if the quality (inflections, pronunciations, etc) is necessarily good. But more often, I can feel the emotion better which adds to a scene's intensity among other things. Most English dubs of Japanese games tend to choke at the most important parts by lacking the necessary emotion, or hamming it in a way that's more corny somehow. Some like Zone of the Enders 2 got it right in places. Western games don't have this problem as often so the voice acting tends to fit but it's also because they don't often go as far.
